Faculty Highlight Bill and Sherry Rankin
Friendship is the key to balancing their marriage and careers. While Bill is outgoing, passionate and flamboyant, Sherry is quieter and more reserved.
"Sherry's always been the better teacher," Bill begins, then turns to smile broadly at his wife as she objects.
"You've won teacher of the year three times!" she protests, a smile playing on her face.
"That was an accident," he responds over her laughter.
"Sherry's brilliance is not immediately perceived," Weathers said, referring to the ease with which her husband overshadows her. "Sherry is an astonishingly bright person. I've often said Sherry's the smartest person on this hall."
